Really good food. They only had 1 person running the bar and waitressing but she was hustling. We were not in a huge hurry-she did ask up front. They had a great to go crowd besides the customers at the table. This was honestly a 4.4 experience but the Crab Rangoons were amazing and the hustle of our waitress was so good, it pushed it to a 5 in my book!!!

Found this place on Yelp when searching for restaurants near my hotel. It was so close we decided to walk there. From the outside this place doesn't look like much but once you are inside it's beautiful! The food was excellent. We ordered the combo appetizer, pad thai, and a beef salad. The appetizer was my favorite. The spring roll and crispy shrimp were fried to perfection. The dipping sauces were flavorful without any heat. The pad Thai portion was huge and perfect for sharing. Waitress was attentive and drinks were refilled often which was appreciated. If you are in the area this is definitely a great spot to hit up. I do have some suggestions for the owner. The ripped booth seating needs to be updated. Also all the handwritten paper signs and dirty storefront windows almost made us skip and look elsewhere. I'm glad we took a chance.

Ordered out 2 times. Both times the food was delicious and well spiced (I enjoy that but there's options to avoid that when ordering if you don't). Ordered the spring rolls, a curry and drunken noodles. Spring rolls are crispy, portions are large and plenty of the protein choice added to the dishes too. This is now our go to Thai restaurant in Norfolk.Vegetarian options: Protein offered for entree dishes includes tofu and veggies.

We got the Pad See Eaw, Pad Thai, Fried Rice, and Panang Curry for take out. Besides panang curry being too watered down (picture posted), everything else was 10/10. I ordered a 1 spice level for everything and it was too spicy for my kid who likes spicy but it was perfect for the adults. The take out portions are the biggest take out portions i’ve ever had, so love that.

Alright listen everyone. This place is absolutely fantastic. Me and the person I went with couldn’t figure out why the place was empty. Food fantastic, server fantastic, price fantastic. Let’s fill this place up on Saturday nights.

I ordered on Uber eats, got the Panang curry which was watery and bland… the pad Thai was ok and the drunken noodles were very mushy… overall disappointing. The Thai tea was good but for the quality of the meal it is significantly over priced.
Tida Thai offers wonderful hospitality and delicious food.We were visiting Virginia Beach and saw this Thai restaurant located near our hotel in the Virginia Beach Town Center. We stopped by to place an order for take out as they were about to close. This quaint restaurant was dimly lit, creating an intimate ambiance.We ordered Beef Pad See Ew and Combination Fried Rice. I thought the fried rice was good. The pad see ew, however, was just okay. The flat noodles were a little overcooked for my preference and the taste was slightly sweeter than I expected.I did appreciate them being open, as we were really craving some Thai food. The lady who helped us was very nice, as was an older woman (maybe the owner’s mother?) who greeted us with her warm smile.Parking: Parking available in front of the restaurant if you can snag one. Otherwise, there are plenty of spaces within the business plaza’s shared parking lot.

Big fan of Tida Thai. I use to go to the town center location regularly until I moved to norfolk. I was so happy when they opened one up closer to me. The food is always great. I will say I have never dined in, but from picking up my orders it looks very nice

Place was deserted, no staff were available to greet us upon arrival, even after waiting 10 minutes. Food was…fine but for the prices they’re charging, it’s absolutely disgraceful. Sauce was bland and the chicken was of the same caliber as that of a cheap Chinese takeout. I wouldn’t recommend coming

I ordered the curry lamb and it was clearly NOT lamb it was beef and I know because I don’t eat beef. I tried to tell them that but they said it was lamb as if I wouldn’t know better. After going back and forth they told me to return it, IN THE MIDDLE OF A TROPICAL STORM. They should have just given me my money back for it because they know damn well they are selling beef trying to up charge you and pass it off as lamb. I will not be eating here again. God only knows what else they substitute their other meats for ?

Ordered on doordash so can't speak to physical restaurant, but my pad Thai was delicious! Not skimpy on the peanuts and I like that they were finely chopped, and the spice level I ordered was perfect. I only get pad Thai from places that let you choose a spice level
